[Rails] Broken config/lighttpd.conf? (in EdgeRails)

I''m using Mac OS X, I installed Ruby/Rails/lighttpd/etc via the  
instructions from hivelogic.  I think I''ve found a bug with  
EdgeRails, but I''m not sure how to submit it (and maybe I''m
doing
something wrong and someone can just point me in the right  
direction).  Anyway I thought I''d report it just in case it is a bug.

I''ve downloaded the EdgeRails tree (revision 4007 using `/usr/local/ 
bin/svn co http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk rails`) and  
built a new rails app (using `/usr/local/bin/ruby rails/railties/bin/ 
rails ~/Sites/test2`)

I then cd to the test2 directory, and `rake freeze_edge` (I also have  
GemRails installed which I can''t change yet).  When I try to start  
the lighty server (using start/server) it tries to copy lighttpd.conf  
from my vendor directory (as it should).  Unfortunately, `rake  
freeze_edge` doesn''t put
"rails/railties/configs/lighttpd.conf" into
my vendor directory.  So script/server barfs:

---%<---

=> Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force
WEBrick)
=> config/lighttpd.conf not found, copying from /Users/ptb/Sites/ 
Rails/test2/vendor/rails/railties/configs/lighttpd.conf
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1182:in `stat'': No such file or  
directory - /Users/ptb/Sites/Rails/test2/vendor/rails/railties/ 
configs/lighttpd.conf (Errno::ENOENT)

         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1393:in

         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:382:in `cp''
         from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/ 
commands/servers/lighttpd.rb:40
         from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/

         from ./script/../config/../vendor/rails/railties/lib/ 
commands/server.rb:34
         from script/server:3

---%<---

Unfazed, I tried copying the entire rails tree directly into my  
vendor directory (`/usr/local/bin/svn co http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ 
svn/rails/trunk vendor/rails`).  That should fix the problem of the  
missing lighttpd.conf file.  Well it does, but it doesn''t replace  
"CWD" in lighttpd.conf with the current directory, so even though  
lighttpd.conf has been copied, it doesn''t point to the correct  
directory.

---%<---

=> Booting lighttpd (use ''script/server webrick'' to force
WEBrick)
=> config/lighttpd.conf not found, copying from /Users/ptb/Sites/ 
Rails/test/vendor/rails/railties/configs/lighttpd.conf
=> Rails application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000
=> Call with -d to detach
=> Ctrl-C to shutdown server (see config/lighttpd.conf for options)
Undefined config variable: var.CWD
2006-03-21 11:25:28: (configfile.c.800) source: config/lighttpd.conf  
line: 8 pos: 43 parser failed somehow near here: +
Exiting

---%<---

What I''ve been doing is opening the file with vi then doing search  
and replace with CWD with the correct path, but that''s tedious and  
not the way it should be.  I think it''s script/server that should do  
the substitutions after it copies the file, but it''s currently not  
doing that.  What do you think, bug?

[Rails] Broken config/lighttpd.conf? (in EdgeRails)

Hi Peter,

I had the same problem. Here''s my simple test, a description of the 
problem, and what I did to fix it. There may be a reason why the 
configs dir is not checked out but I don''t know why that is.

I have rails 1.0 installed. After updating rake I tried the following:

rails editor
cd editor
rake freeze_edge
script/server

which produced an error when it couldn''t find the file:

   vendor/rails/railties/configs/lighttpd.conf

to copy into config/lighttpd.conf

Problem:

The freeze_edge task in framework.rake only checks out the lib 
directories in each framework but 
vendor/rails/railties/lib/commands/servers/lighttpd.rb is looking for 
vendor/rails/railties/configs/lighttpd.conf.

I patched my Rails 1.0 rake freeze_edge task 
(rails-1.0.0/lib/tasks/framework.rake):

   for framework in %w( railties actionpack activerecord actionmailer 
activesupport actionwebservice )
     mkdir_p "vendor/rails/#{framework}"
     system  "svn export 
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk/#{framework}/lib 
vendor/rails/#{framework}/lib #{revision_switch}"
   end
end

By inserting the following line after line 46:

   for framework in %w( railties actionpack activerecord actionmailer 
activesupport actionwebservice )
     mkdir_p "vendor/rails/#{framework}"
     system  "svn export 
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk/#{framework}/lib 
vendor/rails/#{framework}/lib #{revision_switch}"
   end
   system  "svn export 
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/trunk/railties/configs 
vendor/rails/railties/configs #{revision_switch}"
end

After rm -rf vendor/rails/ and rake freeze_edge my script/server 
command worked.

So, `rake freeze_edge` runs from rails-1.0.0 and not vendor/rails?

Is that what everyone should expect is the correct behavior for  
rake?  I would have thought that rake would use vendor/rails if it  
existed, and gemrails only if vendor/rails wasn''t available (in which  
case http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4047 would have fixed this  
problem).

[Rails] Broken config/lighttpd.conf? (in EdgeRails)

Undefined config variable: var.CWD
means your (and my) lighttpd doesn''t support mod_cml and I guess edge
rails assumes you have it.
I''m on Mac OS X and I haven''t found an easy way to compile
lighty with
mod_cml yet. The lighttpd +cml darwinport is broken, I think, because
the lua port doesn''t generate a pkgconfig file. I''d file a bug
if I
had any idea who''s responsibility it is :-)
I''d love to hear a non-darwinports way of installing lighty with
mod_cml (on OSX x86).

thanks,
-Sam

[Rails] Broken config/lighttpd.conf? (in EdgeRails)

*** Rails 1.1 will require lighttpd 1.4.11 (if you''re using lighttpd)  
***

---

I submitted a ticket on this issue: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/ 
4344 and DHH said that "Yes, Rails 1.1 will assume that you have  
1.4.11 or above. You''re still free to use 1.4.8, but it''ll
require
that you alter your lighttpd.conf accordingly."  (See the ticket for  
a workaround.)

I''ve built lighttpd 1.4.11 on Mac OS X 10.4.5 using the instructions  
from hivelogic (1) (changing the version number obviously) and "CWD"  
is built into 1.4.11.  Everyone will need to upgrade to 1.4.11 if  
they want to run Rails 1.1 apps.
>>> So, `rake freeze_edge` runs from rails-1.0.0 and not vendor/rails?
This is my statement, so I''ll give myself a big "DUH".  `rake
freeze_edge` copies the EdgeRails trunk *into* vendor/rails so  
obviously rake is going to use "rails-1.0.0/lib/tasks/framework.rake"
for it''s configuration (vendor/rails doesn''t exist until
it''s run!).
Unfortunately, rails-1.0 didn''t copy vendor/rails/railties/configs/ 
lighttpd.conf from the trunk into vendor/rails.  (This was fixed with  
http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4047)

Therefore, in order to get a *complete* checkout of EdgeRails into  
vendor/rails is to actually run `rake freeze_edge` **twice**.  The  
first time it uses the config from rails-1.0.0 (your gem install),  
the second time it runs the config from vendor/rails which correctly  
copies lighttpd.conf into your app.
